Modern God at Circa Theatre

Marketing Manager from Circa Theatre

Six influencers collide in a high-energy dance-theatre work exploring fame, consumerism, and our digital obsessions. Footnote New Zealand Dance present the return season of the critically acclaimed MODERN GOD.

Stunts will be attempted. Records broken. Memes made. Content consumed. Advertising sold. Lives ruined. Heroes formed.

This high-powered show, straddling the realms of contemporary dance and physical theatre, delves into the intricate web of global internet culture. It’s a unique opportunity to dissect our interactions with the online world, from its absurdity and speed to its utility and potential dangers.

Reviews:
“breathtaking tour de force of artistry” The Post
“MODERN GOD is immediate. It’s urgent and overwhelming. Bloody. Its concerns are with the now; the intersections between social media, capitalism, and us.” – Jack McGee, Art Murmurs

Toe Fai! and Talaucaka

Marketing Manager from Circa Theatre

Step into the fractured future of Aqua Nullius, a speculative Pasifika futurism play series by Emele Ugavule, where memory, data, and ancestry collide. This double bill presentation – Toe Fai! and Talaucaka – weaves together two interconnected worlds that imagine futures shaped by ecological collapse and technological empire. Drawing from an Indigenous Pacific perspective, Aqua Nullius reclaims the right to imagine beyond colonial timelines, exploring futurism, memory, and digital colonialism through embodied storytelling and collective resistance.
